I want to have an article with images which act as links to other articles; when I select an image in an article and use the attach link button, it seems to take -- but when I save and try out an image, when I click I get the usual lightbox response. Any way to have an image act as link (like an imagemap)?

Hi Lynne
I am inserting images into an article as per usual. I am then selecting said images and using the "link" button (earth with chain link thingy) to designate a URL to the image in order for the image to act as a link to a different article on my site.Comment

Add links to pics
rattling the cage...
So can the editor do this somehow or is this another hand-code html situation? This would be a nice feature to add: when you hover over image and click pencil icon, in that image menu box where you choose size, justification, description, etc, here you could add a URL to the pic and hence deselect lightbox setting.Comment

I just added an image into one of my articles and put url tags around it:
Code:[noparse][URL=http://www.vbulletin.com][ATTACH]40[/ATTACH][/URL][/noparse]

Lynn, I am having problems with this issue as well. Has anyone figured out a way to consistently link attached images (in the CMS) to outside URLs? The [Attach] code always inserts the lightbox code link in between the outside link [URL] code and the actual graphic. Is there maybe a template I could edit so that [Attach] doesn't stick a default link to simply expand the graphic on article pages? I want the [Attache] graphics to still work like they currently do in article previews, but once a person is viewing the actual article, I'd like the images to be able to be linked to relevant outside sites.Comment

If you think this is a bug, then you should enter it into the bug tracker so the devs can look into it. Put as much detail as possible so the issue can be duplicated.

I don't think it's a bug, it kind of does what it's supposed to do, assuming you want images to only display in full view or in lightbox when you click on them. There is nothing 'broken' about it's function, it's just that I happen to want to link them to other sites or URL's instead. I'll put in a ticket though. Thanks for the suggestion.Comment

I found the bug report for this issue, but it says it's closed?
It seems to be closed because it's a duplicate of this:
But neither one looks like it has a solution. I see good suggestions of how this could be addressed in future versions, but since the issue looks closed, I don't know what the next step would be. What is your advice Lynn? Petition to re-open? Or am I just looking in the wrong place and this has actually been solved?Comment

Here is the issue in the new bug tracker - http://tracker.vbulletin.com/browse/VBIV-4920 It is still open. I would suggest you comment in there and say that this is an issue on your site as well and you would like a solution.
